Satyricon "The Age of Nero"

The Age of Nero is the seventh studio album by Norwegian black metal band Satyricon. It was released on 3 November 2008, through Roadrunner Records. The release was backed by a full European headlining tour opening in Stavanger, Norway on 12 November and ending in Hamburg, Germany on 20 December.

Most of the album was written in a forest cabin, with the collaboration of Snorre Ruch (Thorns). It was recorded in part at Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, California, the place where Metallica had recorded Death Magnetic.

On 6 October 2008, the first single, "Black Crow on a Tombstone", was released for online streaming at Roadrunner Records' UK website.

The 5th track on the album, "My Skin Is Cold", is labeled "album version" and is different from the title track on the My Skin Is Cold EP.

A music video for "Black Crow on a Tombstone" was made.
